FCIP

ALSO CALLED:
Fibre Channel over IP,
Fibre Channel over TCP/IPDEFINITION: FCIP provides a mechanism to tunnel Fibre Channel over IP-based networks. This enables the interconnection of Fibre Channel SANs, with TCP/IP used as the underlying wide-area transport to provide congestion control and in-order delivery of data.

WHITE PAPER:
Access this case study to learn how Casio was able to migrate to Red Hat Storage Server, whereby a virtualized storage environment can be implemented using the internal disks of commodity servers.

TECHNICAL ARTICLE:
10-GigE is the latest, fastest LAN interconnect, the next in a series following Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet. Rest assured that if you have not already implemented 10-GigE you’re not late - while some organizations have begun to use it, cabling upgrades will be required to drive broader deployment.

WHITE PAPER:
Organizations can benefit from the advantages of 10GbE, consolidation on Dell PowerEdge blade servers, and virtualization with VMware. By implementing 10GbE solutions, organizations can enjoy the economies they hoped to obtain by consolidating and virtualizing their server environment, along with increased performance, reliability, and security.
